Hey, soccer fans! Nick is back and spittin’ Fire! In this episode, we begin with a recap of the Men in Red’s season opening draw to the Philadelphia Union. Nick questions some of the lineup decisions and the transition defense, but all things considered, is happy with a point on the road to a perennial Eastern Conference power. He also discussed the step forward homegrown attacking midfielder Brian Gutierrez took in this match.
We also preview the Chicago Fire’s home opener against FC Cincinnati. Nick predicts another draw, but also outlines how the Fire could get out to a quick lead and make the defending Supporters’ Shield winner an unwelcome visitor to Soldier Field.
In the second half of the show, we give you and update on Concacaf Champions Cup, the likelihood of a Major League Soccer team winning the tournament, and we recap all the scores from around the league. Our show finishes with Nick’s pre-season predictions for the Eastern Conference (spoiler, he’s not very high on Inter Miami).
Remember to rate, review, and share the show. Let's go, Fire!
